They are the only ones who can risk it. It’s honest folks that seek the light. It’s the same way in business. The manufacturer or the merchant who is not sure of his goods does not dare to advertise. Advertising would hasten the end of his business career—put him to a test he could not meet. 4 The man who advertises, deliberately invites your inspection.
